While many personal finance sites focus on things such as getting out of debt, saving for retirement, and investing, what really matters to me the most is how we can live healthy prosperous lives. There are times when I have lost my motivation and wanted to just quit. This site, like life, has taken me on a journey.

While it’s certainly not the same as having the tangible items in my hands or experiencing the thrill of being at a dream vacation destination, I’ve found that the simple act of pinning what I like gives me the motivation to work harder , earn more and save more in order to potentially have these things in the future.

This is where we cut out any extra spending, such as personal money and clothing money, as well as trying to cut our grocery budget for the month, and add the money we saved to the debt payment. When it’s time to get the girls new clothes, I’ll inventory what they have, and then create a list of what they need.

For example, if you are shopping for clothes , look for off season discount sales where you can get good clothes at a cheap price. The internet works great for things like insurance management, loan and finance management, as well as goods for the home. Watch for sales: Don’t ever buy items at full price.

If you are like me, you like gifting your loved ones on special occasions, but buying all those gifts can put a real dent in your finances. Your variable expenditures, such as groceries, entertainment, clothing, and so on, all go into their own separate envelopes. The painful part is that we can’t avoid them.
